Church in Reinkenhagen (2008)

The Reinkenhagen church was built in the 13th century in the brick Gothic style in the Reinkenhagen district of the Sundhagen municipality in Western Pomerania .

Affiliation

A first parish was formed in 1343 in the parish of the chapels in Hildebrandshagen and Wilmshagen near Reinkenhagen. Johann Triller is considered the first clergyman .

The Protestant parish has been part of the Stralsund Propstei in the Pomeranian Evangelical Church District of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Northern Germany since 2012 . Before that she belonged to the Demmin parish of the Pomeranian Evangelical Church .

history

The rectangular choir was built around 1300. The church was badly damaged in the Thirty Years War and rebuilt by 1693. In 1798 the building received an organ . During the French occupation, the parish was looted and the church was also affected on January 28, 1807. The reconstruction took place in 1828 and 1829. The tower top with lantern was completed in 1914. During the First World War , the parish had to hand over the 515 kg bell from 1757. It was smashed in the tower because it was too big to be transported away. In 1920 she received two new bells. The larger of them weighs 900 kg, the smaller 560 kg. Another renovation took place from 1998 to 1999. Paintings inside could be exposed.

architecture

The choir has a length of two bays and is decorated with panels on the east gable . In the late Gothic period, a square church tower was built into the western yoke of the originally three-bay, flat-roofed nave . The other two yokes of the nave, like the two yokes of the choir, have a ribbed vault and are based on a field stone plinth. The pointed arch windows were decorated with profiled soffits. On the south side there is a vestibule with a portal and a double arcade on round columns, next to it there is a sacristy . The vestibule and sacristy have gables decorated with glazed molded stones.

Furnishing

The furnishings include a wooden altarpiece with paintings and figures, which was made in Jakob Freese's workshop in 1772 . The organ comes from Friedrich Albert Mehmel .
